Twin Springs Farm dates back to 1820, and was one of the first farmsteads built by European settlers in East Union. This high-posted antique cape sits on a 1. 74 acre lot, but conveys with a 1/6 undivided interest in the entirety of the farm, which has been conserved in a private land trust encompassing 120-150 acres of the original homestead.

The land remains much the same as it was 200 years ago. There are six house lots on the farm. Each shareholder owns their own home and house lot, and a 1/6 undivided interest in the land. Each shareholder is a member of the Twin Springs Farm Land Association. There are no dues or fees.

The farm acreage encompasses pastures, an apple orchard, an amazing swimming hole in Quiggle Brook, ski trails through the woods, a field of daffodils, and a shared garden space.

All systems have been updated. The electrical service was redone in 2019, and a heat pump hot water system put in. The water comes from a spring fed well. The septic system is new as of 2011-12 and 2016 and was pumped out in the spring of 2021. There is a new oil furnace and oil tank. There is an ell attaching the house to the barn, which houses a workshop downstairs and a studio upstairs.

There is plenty of gardening space, room for your animals, and a better life waiting. If you are looking for serenity, a hill to watch the stars at night, and a place to ramble through hill and dale, this is it.
